GALLON. Departed this life, March Goth,
1887, after short but painful illness, JOHN
GALLON beloved husband of Mollie Gallon.
Oh! father, must we give you up,
You whom we loved so we'll
How can we drink that bitter cup,
And say at last, farewell.
But, dearest father art thou gone
Forever from our sight,
Shall we no more thy face behold,
SO cheerful and SO bright.
A FRIEND.
CULLUM.-Departed this life, March 3lst,
1887, CARRIE e. CULLUM, aged IS months
and days, youngest daughter of Richard and
Lizzie Cullum.
Day after day we saw her fade,
And gently pass away;
And often in our hearts we prayed,
That she might longer stay.
Our house is sad and lonely,
And dull is it to-day,
Since we have laid our darling
Little Carrie away
We loved our darling Carrie,
The Saviour loved her too,
An angel came and whispered,
Carrie, papa and mamma must part with
you.
Darling Carrie, human hands tried to save
you;
For happy angels came to bear you
From this weary world of pain.
BY HER PAPA AND MAMMA.
Another little lamb has gone
To dwell with Him who gave;
Another little dar ling babe
Is sheltered in the grave.
God needed one more angel child
Amidst His shining band,
And so He bent with loving smile,
And clasped cur darling's hand.

kie went over to where the boys were
neatly trapped and marched six of
them off to the cooler-one having
escaped. 1t seems the boys had gath
cred in the cars for the purpose of
playing cards. 1t is also probable
that they INDUCED in smoking. and as
the bottom of the car was well strewn
with straw, there was considerable
danger of fire taking place. An
old barrel had been placed in the car
for card table. The boys were GER
tainly not learning anything useful

Several residences and business
places in the city will be heated with
steam this winter, among which are
the residences of j. w. Fitzgerald and
II. G. Beach, the business place of A.
G. Frost, the store of Hawley & Fitz-
gerald, the Globe and the Churchill.
We are inclined to the belief that,
before many years pass, most Of the
business blocks will be heated with
steam, as it will be cheaper and safer.
At present every store and Office has
its own heating apparatus in the shape
of coal or wood stoves, and it certain
ly must be a great deal more expcn-
sive to 90 it alone, than it would be
for the residents of whole block to
unite and heat by steam. One good
sized boiler ought to supply steam
enough to heat three or four stores
and number Of Offices and not cost
much more than is required for fur
mace to heat one store. The princi-
pal objection is the expense of the
pipes and radiators.

owners pay as high as ninety cents
day. on an average, to the men who

put another dollar per ton on the
price of their coal.
